Personal

I’m originally from the Azores, a Portuguese archipelago in the North Atlantic.

I live in the Tower Grove area of St. Louis with my partner, our two daughters, and our cat.

When I’m not working or parenting, I enjoy (and often read about):

• cooking & wine
• art history & architecture
• running
• vexillology - I’m a member of NAVA and have contributed to its publications
• science/speculative fiction - especially the work of Gene Wolfe
• Magic: The Gathering
